RHEMA Greece!!

9/28/2010

0 Comments

 
RHEMA Greece has officially begun! The launch was on September 25th, and while there were some challenges with the building being completed on time due to recent labor strikes going on, it was still a weekend of celebration and new beginnings. Pastor Spyros had been trusting God for 10 people to be in the charter class… and thought 15 would be miraculous… but he is starting with over 20! A was able to see a photo of the students in a classroom, and knowing that I would be seeing and ministering to those same people in just a few weeks made my heart glad! For the school, I’ve been assigned to teach Bibliology (History of the Bible), Church History and RHEMA History. It will be a lot to cover in only 15 hours of class time (with an interpreter besides) but I know God has me going for such a time as this!

The Kindle the Flame Women’s Conference was this weekend, too. Each service built one upon another and brought me such joy as the different things shared confirmed so much that the Lord has been revealing in prayer already this year. He’s helping us to be “real” and vulnerable in His presence; He’s pouring out His love in our hearts afresh; He’s restoring the joy of our salvation; and He’s equipping us to be who we are destined to be in Him. There is more to pray, more to discover and more to walk out in the days ahead, but He’s doing it!

Harvest Celebration

9/17/2010

What a wonderful week in Mattoon, IL! I was able to attend the Harvest Celebration at LifePointe Church this last weekend. Pastor Marvin Yoder, was the Dean of Students when I was at RHEMA and one of the key note speakers was the Dean of the School when I attended, so to be somewhere where both of them were together again was a real treat! I had opportunity to reconnect with other alumni from the school and to meet some wonderful new people as well. Philip Slaughter and Jerome Hamilton also spoke during the week and we were exhorted again and again about this being a season of Harvest in our lives… especially as it relates to people coming into the Kingdom of God. Messages were timely and I was stirred again about personal purpose and direction God has shown in times past.

Opportunities to be a light come every day, too. Yesterday I took a bus ride from Mattoon to make a trip north to Michigan where my Aunt and Uncle live. When I got on the bus for the first part of my journey, I quickly realized by the way they were dressed that there was something unique about the majority of the passengers… they had just been released from prison. The man I sat next to was one, but it was one of God’s divine encounters. He was 56 years old and had a Bible and the Joyce Meyer book “Battlefield of the Mind” in his lap. As we began to talk I heard his story and had the privilege of gaining unique insight into the life of an inmate. I was able to encourage him in his walk with the Lord, but the sharing of his story ministered to me, too.

“Crossing cultures” doesn’t always happen just by going to another nation. Sometimes it can happen on a bus ride when you’re gaining an inside look into the heart of a person who’s experienced something in a place you’ve never known.

Prayers and LINK Team

9/10/2010

When last I wrote, I was sharing about meeting with a friend and being so touched as she shared about Greece. Today, she and some others who have Pastor Spyros and that nation on their hearts gathered to pray. It was yet another way to be connected as well as to allow God to prepare my heart for going. Others will be making a trip there in November, so it’s been wonderful to see how God is making ongoing provision for the school and ministry in Greece.

Earlier this week I was also able to share again at the Called to the World LINK Team. I shared from personal experiences as well as encouraged people in their own. At one point we spent time praying for the different people who would be going overseas in the next 4-6 weeks, and about half of the people there were taking missions trips! “Called to the World” is more than a name for that RHEMA LINK Team!
